I have this horrid poo smell from my mouth. I brush my teeth twice a day, floss, use Dentyl PH mouthwash, I have the best oral hygeine of anyone I know but I still have this smell. I am too embarrassed to even ask my flriends or family to tell me my breath stinks. I am becoming totally reclusive because of it. Id rather go to my GP and tell him ive got an STD. I know ive got it coz sometimes people look around and ask if ive farted, and I see people with babies smelling their nappies when I speak. It really is starting to badly affect my life but I just cant pluck up the courage ot go to my GP. How on earht can i ay \"DR, My breath smells like poo!\" Please, if anyone has any tips let me know.

The response from doctors has been abysmal. They are supposed to help but if its something they don't know about then they just give up. Managed to convince one to let me try Clarithromycin, Metronidazole and Lansoprazole which I am trying right now. My breath has momentarily stopped smelling and instead of feeling great I feel awful because of all the things I have missed out on.
Will try moxifloxacin if the smell returns which I suspect it will. Google reports that someones poo breath was caused by a hiatus hernia. Will ask for a referral to a gastroenterologist so they can perform an endoscopy.Other causes may be metabolic - Dimethylsulfidemia or Hypermethioninemia. Wikipedia has a long list of possible medical conditions that might cause this problem. I will work my way through them.
The next doctor that refuses to help me will find themselves reported to their regulatory body.

Always practice perfect posture. Chin up, head back, shoulders back and up, chest out, and lower back flexed inward, kinda like your belly button has a string attached to it and you are being pulled by someone. Do you have sinus problems? Even if you don't, old mucus can still be stuck in your upper throat or between your nose and throat from a past infection. Old mucus can be months old and smell very badly. Flush your throat and the back of your nose with a Hydropulse or waterpik to see if old mucus could be your problem. Have you gotten your tonsils checked for stones? Are your tonsils crypted (do they have holes in them?)? Just because you don't have stones on the outside of your tonsils does NOT mean you don't have them. If your tonsils are crypted then the stones are hiding inside of your tonsils and every time you talk or swallow, those stones are exposed for a split second and their foul smell comes out. Make sure your drink a gallon of water a day, too. I PROMISE you one of the things I mentioned in this message is causing your poop breath. It's just a matter of you finding out which are causing your problem. Since your family already knows you have bad breath, test out your breath on them each time you try one of these solutions. If right after you eat sauerkraut and you have fresh breath but your poop breath comes back later on, then that means you have a bacterial overgrowth in your body. If you eat sauerkraut and your bad breath doesn't go away at all, then that most likely means you have tonsils stones stuck inside your tonsils or old mucus somewhere within your throat or nose. I am sure you already know this but don't eat dairy or sugar EVER when you have poop breath. You are what you eat. Just remember that this poop breath IS curable. Sometimes a bad bacteria overgrowth can take months to get rid of. Start eating the fermented foods and keep on eating them until your smell is gone. Remember, just because you went on a "clean" diet before and it didn't help your breath, doesn't mean a diet isn't the solution. Consuming LOADS of good bacteria is absolutely vital to your success. I know I have said that throughout this message but I am trying to drive home the point to you (and everyone else reading this) so you can conquer this terrible problem. If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

So what is it that you agree with me about. It does give me little comfort to know am not the only person suffering from this. But comfort isnt what i need. What i need is a chance to live my life normally. The way i see it...we must have really p*ssed jesus/god/allah/buddha or mothernature off cos for some strange reason we have been given this curse which makes life incredibly difficult to live. I look forward to your reply. These replys from fellow sufferers is what keeps me going

I also have suffered from the same problem but I am here today because I would like to share what I have been doing and it is working.
1- eating sauerkraut at least once a day
2-eating greek yogurt once a day(the natural one)
3-drinking a green vegetable juice early in the morning ( it should includ celery, parsley, cucumber and lime juice)
4- brushing my teeth, scraping my togue and gargling with warm wateer mixed with salt and baking soda right after each meal
4- flushing my nose with a saline solution ( one cup  of warm water, half tea spoon of salt, half tea spoon of baking soda) in the morning and at night
5- chwing fennel seeds during regular hours , whenever I feel like it.
I have been doing this for only two weeks but I feel much better and I have been able to seat near people when I need to join a meeting and I dont see them looking at me or covering their nose anymore.
Please try this if you are still suffering. It is worth it and simple. We just need to make some time for ourselves. I finally found a solution for a problem that I was suffering for so many years and I am heppier now.
I hope this will help you guys. Â Cheers

I have spent an embracing amount of money trying to find a cure but it's been a waste . My density thinks I am doing a good job keeping my mouth clean , the gastorologist found nothing alarming , my next step is to see an ENT for a consultation . I am determined to find a solution this years as I don't know how much more of this I can takeÂ

Hello Jay05,
I am so frustrated with Doctors it's not funny. I too had my tonsils removed and it made it worse! Apparently we need them to help produce good bacteria. People look at you like, just brush your teeth! I'm a teacher and I smell up the whole classroom. Students and teachers would spray things when I leave the room. People close to me say they don't notice anything. Doctors really have no clue. I feel like I have tried everything. It has to be coming from somewhere, but where!? Did you figure it out yet? I've tried changing the diet, nettipot, special mouth products, had an endoscopy, colonoscopy, everything. I just quit my job because the other teachers would call me "ass mouth" laugh at me with the students. I started getting sick, not wanting to go to work. It's making me crazy and depressed. Did you find a cure yet?
I'm to the point I don't want to leave the house.
